FREESPEAK BY JOHNNY SPANONE

In 2005 Lawrence Chris Parker, aka KRS 1, was quoted on the blog, Basis,  D.L. Chandler's frequent thoughts on the world of hip hop and beyond , stating that he wasn't shocked by the media's obsession with the violence in Hip-hop because it often gave them good stories to report on, and continued by referring to hip hop as a microwave culture that expected information hastily, plus didn't care to substantiate the information before accepting it as the truth. With this, we can clearly identify how the legendary Bronx rapper felt about the way the media portrayed hip-hop to its viewers as a violent culture just to gain a larger viewership leading to profit, at the expense of the culture's perceived moral stance from the public point of view as a whole. Thus, it wouldn't be far-fetched to assume that during the mid-'90s, the media's propagated East-West conflict that was ongoing between rappers wouldn't have impressed KRS 1, who was by the time actively...

  Delray Richardson, an award-winning songwriter, recently claimed that Tupac Shakur wasn't legally signed to Deathrow Records. He continued by clarifying his statement saying Tupac was still signed to Interscope Records when he was approached by Suge Marion Knight, the then C E O of Deathrow.

Kill Kill a rapper from Watts, Los Angeles, accused Tupac of stealing the concept of his song, ' Mama Dear ' which Tupac released as, 'Dear Mama' after Kill Kill handed him a  demo tape at 92.3 The beat radio station now known as KRRL.  Kill Kill's track was released in 1994, one year before Tupac released his. The angered rapper went on to release a diss track against Tupac in 1995 called ' Here we go ' claiming he thought Tupac was a friend and an authentic rapper, just to find out later that he was just a fraud and a fake.  At the time the diss track by Kill Kill was released, Tupac was in jail serving a sentence after being accused of rape the previous year and couldn't respond.
